6.24 is what percent of 745 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 745 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 745, so we can write it down as 100%=745.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.24.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=745
2) x%=6.24
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=745/6.24
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.24 is what percent of 745

100%/x%=745/6.24
(100/x)*x=(745/6.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=119.39102564103*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (119.39102564103) to get x
100/119.39102564103=x
0.83758389261745=x
x=0.83758389261745

now we have:
6.24 is 0.83758389261745% of 745
